Arsenal suffered a heavy defeat on Sunday as they were taken apart by Manchester City at The Emirates.
Kevin De Bruyne put on a midfield masterclass as he won the game in the first-half with two stunning goals and an assist for Raheem Sterling.
Meanwhile, in Arsenal’s midfield, Matteo Guendouzi has been receiving stick from some fans for attempting to buy free-kicks by initiating contact with opposition players.
Needs to sort it out…
Twitter: I’m all for standing by young players when they face a dip in form, but one thing I can’t defend is Guendouzi tryin… https://t.co/DN8ChSXdYe (@PatrickTimmons1)

READ ARSENAL VERDICT
There is no excuse for diving or trying to buy free-kicks off the referee at any point. Guendouzi needs to learn and cut it out of his play before it becomes something that is embedded in his game. The last thing he wants is to be known as a diver, he should be looking to prove his quality on the ball without having to force contact to win free-kicks.
Instead, he should be driving Arsenal forward with the ball and picking out his creative teammates to spark attacks. His job should be to win the ball back and pass it to the likes of Pepe, Ozil, Martinelli and Aubameyang – not to throw himself about and embarrass himself.
